Note to future husband:
I don't require flowers, but they're always nice, and if you're ever at a loss for what kind to get me, remember this poem, and all will be well. Happy Valentine's Day y'all!
A White Rose
John Boyle O'Reilly (1844-1890)
The red rose whispers of passion,
And the white rose breathes of love;
O the red rose is a falcon,
And the white rose is a dove.
But I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush on its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips.
